CloseHello everyone! I'm currenly making a game on rpg maker vx ace and i'm using
Modern Algebra's Quest Journal 1.0.3 , http://pastebin.com/4pAz9KG5
My problem is that I would like a 2nd journal with the same functions as the 1st, but with different names and icons and with different main menu index.
Is there any way of doing this? My scripting knowledge is basically 0, so i have no idea if an how is this possible.
Any help would be very much appreciated!

I almost want to tell you to make a copy of that script and change the values for MENU_INDEX, ICONS, and VOCAB to whatever you need. However, the new copy of QuestData might need to be re-named, and so would any references to it in the copy. However, I don't know how well that would work (it might not!), and also feel like there's a much better solution for you!
The question occurs to me, though: why do you need two separate quest journals?

Thank you for posting Marrend! I already tried what you said. I copy-pasted the script again with different name index vocab and a lot of other functions but the game keeps saying "stack level too deep". I searched it up a little and its something like an infinite loop if I'm not mistaken? The problem is that my scripting knowledge is too low to know whats causing it...
As for the 2 journals, haha what can i say? I'm making a complex game lol. I want the 1st journal to be for quests and I'll use the 2nd as a hunt log.

Hmm. I am not a programmer so I am not much help but maybe try to make the game a little bit simpler? Just have the one journal. The only thing I can think of that would allow two menus is Yanfly's Ace Menu Engine where you can add custom commands to the menu and such. Maybe that would work for you?

I tried that too but this only made the same journal open in the main menu 2 times, just with different name. I need different names, icons, quests and all the other functions this script provides. :(

Well, not sure what to tell you. :( Sorry. If I actually understood scripting I would just make a script for you but I just cannot understand it to save my life.
Maybe it's just me, but, my head is jumping to the CSCA Encyclopedia script I used in this game. It might not be a quest-log-script per say, but, the ability to manipulate custom data...
...such as the the "Events" tab on display here, and apply that to a "Quests" and "Hunts" category could be something to look into?
*Edit: This script would require the core CSCA script to function.

I had completely forgotten about that script.

No, you just have to credit Casper Gaming. If you plan to release your game commercially then yes you need a license.

Nevermind guys, I did it!
After renaming a ton of stuff in the script, including script calls, i managed to
create 2 different journals the way i wanted, running without problems!
If only i knew the replace name function in the script earlier... unfortunately, i discovered it too late, so it took me like 1 day to rename everything manualy.
Thats what happens if you are a scripting noob :(
Anyway thanks guys for the comments!
Oh also, I'll test the journals a bit more and if everything is ok, I'll post the 2nd journal's script, in case anyone is crazy enough to want 2 journals too ;)

Cool, glad you figured it out. Scripting is hard. I remember trying to create a script that when on death the player would lose 10% XP (like in FFXIV). Never could figure it out.
